I pitched @cryptodispenser at @consensus2024 and it was probably one of the best moments in my life. I was nervous as fuck, but I'm glad I did it and looking back it makes me proud to know that I challenged myself to do things even when they were a little scary. Thanks to @SeanMEverett for supporting me and the company, and everyone else that has been rooting for us since we started.

Some days are heavier than others. I keep showing up, keep building, and trust that God won’t give me more than I can handle. One step at a time. Alhamdulillah, always.

No man will ever have anything happen to him which is not conformable to nature

“Men quarrel with that with which they are most constantly in communion.” — Heraclitus We spend so much of our lives resisting the very nature of life itself. We fight change, despite knowing nothing stays the same. We resist uncertainty, despite knowing nothing is guaranteed. We become frustrated when reality doesn’t align with our expectations. Yet the world has never promised to operate according to our wishes. The more we resist what we cannot control, the more peace we sacrifice. Wisdom isn’t about forcing life to go your way. It’s about understanding the nature of things, accepting what is beyond your control, and directing your energy toward what isn’t. Peace begins when we stop arguing with reality.

People ask me why I’m so into Bitcoin. You work your ass off for money. You save it. Meanwhile, the supply of dollars can keep growing, and your savings can buy less over time. That bothers me. Bitcoin has a supply cap of 21 million. No government can just print more because it needs more money. That’s a big fucking difference. It doesn’t mean the price only goes up. But being able to own something with a supply limit that no central bank controls is a pretty good reason to pay attention. That’s why Bitcoin matters to me.

Marcus Aurelius once wrote: “Do not waste the remainder of your life in thoughts about other people which do not refer to some object of common utility.” The older I get, the more I realize how powerful this is. Think about how much of our lives we spend thinking about other people. What they’re doing, what they’re saying, what they think of us, why they made certain decisions, or what their intentions might be. And for what? Every minute spent unnecessarily occupied with someone else’s life is a minute taken away from your own. Time you could have spent building something, learning something, improving yourself, being present with your family, or simply enjoying the life in front of you. One of the greatest forms of freedom is learning to control where your attention goes. Not everything deserves your reaction. Not every opinion deserves your consideration. Not every person’s behavior deserves your analysis. And not every thought that enters your mind deserves a place in it. This doesn’t mean you shouldn’t care about people. It means understanding the difference between caring about someone and allowing their actions, opinions, or decisions to consume your thoughts. Your attention is one of the few things in life you have the power to direct. And what you consistently give your attention to ultimately shapes the person you become. I’ve come to believe that real peace isn’t found in understanding what everyone else is doing. It’s found in understanding yourself, knowing what matters to you, and having the discipline to keep your mind focused on those things. Stop spending so much time being a spectator of other people’s lives that you forget to live your own. You have one life. Don’t spend it living inside your thoughts about someone else’s.

Last day to file your taxes, make sure you get it done and send that check to Israel

You have to push past your perceived limits, push past that point you thought was as far as you can go

Wake up and try again. No matter what.

there should be a social media platform that tests your blood alcohol level before you sign in to make sure all participants are appropriately fucked up

Did we forget that "social media" meant we had to be "social"
